You run a small business. The Chairman runs the country. Today he decreed a 110% tariff on avocados to protect the national guacamole reserve. Welcome to the Republic of Libertania, where the rules change every morning and the only law that lasts is "the Family gets paid." Tariff Tycoon is a run-based satirical tycoon game, equal parts political comedy, white-knuckle survival, and number-go-up empire builder. Outlast the regime's daily madness, get rich, and decide how it all ends. — EVERY DAY, A NEW DECREE — A slot-machine reel locks in a fresh, absurd law. Hundreds of thousands of combinations mean no two runs ever read alike (yes, they're screenshot-worthy). Then you choose how to survive it: • COMPLY — play nice, cool the Heat • SMUGGLE — break the rules, raise the Heat • CALL THE FAMILY — buy a paid exemption • RESIST — defy them publicly for Reputation Every option shows its exact cost before you tap. No surprises — just consequences. — BUILD YOUR EMPIRE — Climb from Vendor to Storefront to Importer to Conglomerate to Oligarch. Open outlets, stock warehouses, unlock higher-value goods, and juggle four meters at once: Cash, Heat, Favor, and Reputation. — BUY OFF THE REGIME — Bribe your way into the inner circle. Put the Heir, the First Daughter, the Son-in-Law, the Loyalist General, and the Press Secretary on your payroll — each a perk with an upside and a catch. Loyalty has a price. So does everything else. — THREE WAYS OUT — Every empire ends. The only question is how YOU leave: • FLEE with the cash and vanish before sunrise • SELL OUT for a permanent seat at the table • Bankroll the OPPOSITION and topple the whole rotten thing Go bankrupt or let the Heat max out, and you'll be Seized instead. Either way, every run ends with a shareable tabloid front-page obituary and a place in the Hall of Infamy. — ONE MORE RUN — • Quick, snackable runs built for "just one more" • Endlessly replayable, the decrees never repeat • Three businesses, three difficulty modes, and a Crackdown ladder for when you want the regime to fight dirty • Deadpan satire with no real names, just a regime that feels familiar Free to play. One optional purchase, Oligarch Edition ($2.99), unlocks Sandbox mode, Endless Reign, and a calmer regime for when you just want to build. No ads. No other purchases. Get rich while the regime runs wild. Flee, sell out, or bring it all down. A WORK OF SATIRE. The Republic of Libertania, the Chairman, the Family, and all characters and events are entirely fictional. Any resemblance to real persons, nations, governments, parties, or companies is coincidental and intended as broad political satire.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Tariff Tycoon at none against ATM KING's shown. ATM KING's advantage is ratings volume (7 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Tariff Tycoon sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and ATM KING sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Tariff Tycoon against 5.0 for ATM KING. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ATM KING has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
